Punk vs Rock at Rumble for the title, Lesnar costs Rock the belt.
Punk loses belt in the Elimination Chamber to Bryan, Jericho wins the Rumble. Austin interferes in the EC, stunning Punk and getting him eliminated 4th or 5th

Lesnar vs Rock
Punk vs Austin
Cena vs Taker

Why, as a wrestling fan, would you want to wait another year for an Austin/Punk match that's been talked about for 2 years already? Let's make it happen.

However, if Austin wanted to save Punk for WM 30, but still wrestle at WM 29

I could see

Rock vs Punk for the title
Cena vs Taker
Austin vs Lesnar

I'd be fine with either one AS LONG AS CENA VS ROCK DOESNT HAPPEN AGAIN. PLEASE.

I think in the perfect everyone would want Austin Punk now. The problem is we live in the real world and it's just obvious it's very unlikely to happen. Money makes the world go around and Austin just doesn't have much leverage with Rock and Lesnar already on the card.

Austin will only do this if the price is right. Vince will only make the price right if Austin is the main event. Austin Punk just isn't the Main Event of WM 29.

Re: What would you do if Big Show won the title and faced Rock at the Rumble?

We honestly don't need to entertain the idea. He's in the match to take the pin. It wouldn't surprise me if they had some kind of screwy finish where Cena and Punk both cover Show and Punk wins by default.

Rock goes all out when promoting. It's one of the reasons why he's loved in the industry.

I'm all saying is you have to wonder how many of those Raw he's going to be available. Everyone is penciling in Rocky winning at the Rumble and then facing Punk or Cena and something just doesn't add up. Can you have Elimination Chamber w/o the champ? Can you have your champ at no house shows? Missing 2 or 3 Raws during the build up?

I don't think you can.

I don't think anybody expects him to do house shows. He doesn't need to as long as he shows up for RAW. As for Elimination Chamber, we don't know what they have planned yet. It could be a rematch from his RR match or they could do some sort of tag match with him and his Wrestlemania opponent, like the did at Survivor Series last year. The closer we get to that time, the more we'll find out, I guess.
